Apr 19, 2008 Excellente bière brassée par des gens extraordinaires. Douce et aggresive à la fois elle ne laisse personne d’indifférent à son arôme et son post-goût torréfié.

Feb 3, 2009 Bottle. Poured Deep midnight black with a beautiful chocolate head that laced profusely. Aroma was predominantly chocolate syrup, vanilla, oak, and coffee. Sexy. Flavor was chocolate, coffee, caramel, vanilla, oaky phenolic finish. Palate was slightly viscous but lighter than I expected given the syrupy aroma and visibily thick body. Also had a little bite at the end but nothing to worry about. Very good beer.

Jun 10, 2009 Pours BLACK, even when held up to the light, no hints of any other colour. Head is khaki coloured, two fingers deep and clings to my glass for dear life. Aroma is coffee big time up front and in your face. Hints of chocolate, licorice, earthy tones, some soft fruits, a touch of alcohol, fresh brownies, and berries. In the mouth it’s a full frontal assault on the palate. Now I like my coffee black, and this is like taking Turkish coffee and adding a shot if espresso to it. Man is this beer intense! Like chewing on a coffee bean. Hints of chocolate, licorice, soy sauce, red berries, a hint of caramel on the finish with a little bit of oak. Mouth feel is lively and pleasant for the style. This beer punishes your palate every chance it get and you just keep coming back for more. Great beer!

Jun 13, 2009 Updated: Jun 23, 200911.5oz bottle. Pours dark with minimal foam. However carbonation is still appropriate. Served a little too cold, flavor was not immediately all there but as this brew warmed to the correct serving temperature the flavor intensified. Great beer will have to try to get my hands on a 22 oz bottle because I am told they are slightly better to age.

Apr 11, 2009 Bottled oct 2007 making it 1½ years old.
Close to black. No transparancy at all. Nice small lasting light brown head.
Definately coffee on the nose, but that kind of African coffee with a peppermint like smell. There is some vanilla, is this a trace of barrel aging?.
Very smooth on the tongue, and the alcohol is well hidden. The smoothness I find is often there in high quality stouts. It is really not more of everything but lots of everything, just balanced to not throw anything in your face.
Wauw this is good stout.
